Trevor Bowyer

Environmental Educator

Trevor is an experienced environmental educator who has worked for the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea in the Holland Park Ecology Centre for over eight years. During his time there he has lead the development of a successful Forest School programme and the creation of an Edible Forest Teaching garden. Before working in Holland Park, Trevor was a primary school teacher for seven years and did lots of volunteering for the Epping Forest Centenary Trust, National Trust and a country park in Colchester. Trevor has had a lifelong interest in the environment and wildlife. He knows lots of random facts about animals, can name all 17 different types of penguin and has developed lots of random catchphrases to amuse the children and bemuse the adults! Who could forget: ‘I’m a hydrangea, stay away from strangers’.Trevor was awarded his LEEF fellowship at our third awards evening on 12 January 2016. You can download the pun-filled talk he delivered on the evening below.

Trevor has contributed these three great keys for pond creatures, woodlands and trees to share with fellow LEEF members and other interested environmental educators. We ask that you download these and use them in their entirety: please do not cut and paste parts of them into your own documents.
